it does go back to normal in the end. You've had a hell of a journey, give yourself a break - 7 months is not old. And explain to him that it's not rejection, it's exhaustion and if he'd like to help get it back again he can get up in the night to give you a rest ??

Once a week with a 7 month old isn't bad going...he needs to give you a break - pestering you isn't really likely to make you dizzy with lust is it?

Once a week? That sounds fine to me, with a 7m old. We have a 10m old and have managed it precisely 3 times and didn't do it until DC was about 7m old...

Agree your DH needs to stop pestering you, that's not sexy, is it? A baby is all-absorbing and very tiring, both mentally and physically. Just give yourself a break, and maybe DH needs to spoil you a bit .
